How We Met

Love began at first sight… sort of. These two destined lovers first met years ago at Baylor University during their college days. She was an intramural sports chair for the Indian Student Association, while he was participating with the Asian Student Association. They briefly saw each other at a few ISSA meetings. As he recalls: she was very talkative, energetic, and of course very pretty. She recalls him as more of a reserved and shy guy. For years they didn’t see each other. As fate would have it, both ended up in Dallas as Ranjani stayed in town to work for Citigroup after getting her MHA degree, while Sachin relocated to Dallas for Fellowship training. Chance would also have it they both signed up for … yes, Shaadi.com. In summer of 2012, Sachin messaged Ranjani after finding her profile to be: “thoughtful, and with beautiful pictures”. Ranjani messaged back and soon their connection began!

Dinner at a tapas restaurant was followed with a night of fun exploring Deep Ellum in Dallas! What they both realized, right off the bat, was that they really enjoyed being with one another.

This date led to several more as they could both tell that each other was special and they completed each other. Sachin’s charm and tender heart swept Ranjani off her feet. Ranjani’s adventurous and compassionate spirit captured Sachin’s heart. A little over ten months later, the two were engaged and continued to write the pages of their love story.
